datetime fields returned as date when time is 00:00:00

Setting a DATETIME field with the value 2019-10-01 00:00:00 Then retrieve the data using the execute command: const [result] = connection.execute('SELECT * FROM my_table', [])

result will equal to ‘2019-10-01’ instead of ‘2019-10-01 00:00:00’ although it’s a DATETIME field and not merely a DATE

note that when using query the behavior is as expected

Sure here is a standalone snippet

    //running with node 10.16.0 using mysql2 ^1.7.0

    const mysql = require('mysql2/promise');

    async function main() {
    let db = await mysql.createConnection({
        host: 'localhost',
        port: '3306',
        user: 'root',
        password: 'root'
    });
    await db.query("SET time_zone='+00:00'");
    await db.query('DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS test_db');
    await db.query('CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS test_db');
    await db.close();

    db = await mysql.createConnection({
        host: 'localhost',
        port: '3306',
        user: 'root',
        password: 'root',
        database: 'test_db',
        dateStrings: true,
        timezone: '+00:00'
    });

    await db.query('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS mytbl (id INT AUTO_INCREMENT, created DATETIME NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id)) ENGINE=INNODB');
    await db.execute('INSERT INTO mytbl (created) VALUES (?)',['2019-10-01 00:00:00']);
    let [result] = await db.execute('SELECT * FROM mytbl', []);
    console.log('execute result',result[0]);
    [result] = await db.query('SELECT * FROM mytbl', []);
    console.log('query result',result[0]);
    
    }

    main();
